    The blurry close ups are a deal clincher for me.

    They must be on the golf forum here, it's down to €80 but still a good €75 too much :-)

    Haha.
    I asked him what number was on it. Number 3 apparently told him I was looking for number 2 to complete my collection.

    I think that is just a thing in terms of people selling their stuff. They have a reluctance to accept depriciation, and that something they bought now has a lesser value.

    It's not exclusive to golf, it's rampant accross most subsets in Adverts.

    Issue I have is that there is no room for conversation or direction on adverts, instead you get reported and gain infractions and bans.

    can you trying to stick that yoke in the car everytime??
    does the price include the seller pulling it around?

    Adverts is a funny one really. The idea of bargaining for something before you see it, is a bit mad to begin with.
    If the buyer actually went to see the item they most likely would pay over the odds (it's an boom mentality nobody here wants to look tight in front of other people).
    Adverts you can be a right skin flint as your hidden behind a user profile.
    Just an observation, guess it works.
